It wasn't that one that gave trouble, it was the next one, which had an author whose name didn't appear in any trunk checkin. There were a few of those, since resolved. 

So I have a complete repository created with svn2git, which has nice git-formated branches and tags (meaning that git branch and git tag see them), except that a couple of them, including master, are a bit munged and need to be fixed up before I push them.

I also started a straight git svn clone, which stopped mysteriously about the same place. I just restarted it.

Today is Habitat day, so I won't get much work on this done. 

Yawar, how is your git svn clone coming?
